Hi Sarah,
This sounds like the same problem that Daniel reported last month, and
that Carlene may have seen a bit earlier. Do you have a copy of you
old VoiceOver preference files? We're not sure why this is happening
in these instances, but either as a source or result of the problem
you .plist files are getting overwritten or the system thinks they are
corrupted and is generating new ones. (Corrupted preference files are
the second most common general problem, but way down in frequency
after having to repair permissions with Disk Utility). I generally
save copies of the most frequently used plist files somewhere easily
accessed on my home directory. The ones you are likely to want for
VoiceOver are:
com.apple.universalaccess.plist
com.apple.VoiceOver.plist
com.apple.VoiceOver.pronunciations.plist
Here's the start of Daniel's thread on VoiceOver resetting itself:

Use Control-N to read down through the thread. You can also check my
post to Carlene about how to navigate to the Preferences folder. That
post lists even more VoiceOver and speech-related plist files:

If you have any of the old plist files around from a backup, just copy
them into the Library/Preferences folder under your home directory and
they should be used instead.
HTH
Cheers,
Esther
